Nordic Combinatorial Conference (NORCOM)

Background and History

The Nordic Combinatorial Conference (NORCOM) is a triennial
scientific meeting covering the fields of combinatorics
and discrete mathematics, interpreted broadly,
with the arrangement rotated among the five Nordic
countries. The conference is a venue for Nordic as
well as foreign combinatorialists to get together and
interact in a relaxed atmosphere. Plenary talks
are given by distinguished international scholars, and
short presentations are given by participants.

The inaugural NORCOM meeting took place in Norway in 1981,
at the
Utstein Abbey near Stavanger, and was followed
by a second meeting in Sweden in 1984, at
Hässelby Slott in Stockholm. For the programs,
abstracts, and lists of participants of these two meetings, see

Future Conferences

The NORCOM conference series celebrated 2010 with
its 10th meeting and with the first meeting to take place
in Iceland. The 11th meeting took place in Sweden in 2013,
and the 12th meeting will take place in Finland in 2016.
